In the Beijing Winter Olympic Village, a 1500 square meter independent space is specially set up to provide various medical protection for the participating athletes. Many of the details are really heartwarming. In this independent space, there are not only a full range of departments, such as stomatology, orthopedics, ophthalmology, traditional Chinese medicine, etc., the total number of departments is 18. Among them, it also includes acupuncture, tuina, ear acupuncture and other unique Treatment methods in China to help athletes relieve fatigue, anxiety, tension and even insomnia.
Many foreign athletes come here to experience whether traditional Chinese medicine is as magical as the legend. Among them, there are many foreign athletes who "organized groups" to come, and after seeing Chinese acupuncture, they actually liked this feeling of "needle pricking".
Different from Western medical treatment, whether it is massage, cupping, or acupuncture and other treatment methods, the emphasis is on activating the body's own repair ability, and the principle behind it is often more in line with the relationship between man and nature. Although foreign athletes do not understand the principles of treatment, it does not prevent them from praising the magic of Chinese medicine. Especially after the body feels a noticeable change, it is thought that this treatment is really amazing.
Among them, there are many foreign athletes who have long experienced the magic of Chinese tuina and acupuncture, and have become "regular customers" of these departments with Chinese characteristics. To paraphrase them, this is not only a treatment, but also a magical means of physical and mental reassurance, allowing them to relax their minds and meet the next game in a better state. There is no doubt that after the winter Olympic village cuisine, acupuncture, massage and other treatment methods with Chinese characteristics have also followed the fire, and through the social accounts of these athletes, it has caused a lot of heated discussion abroad. Invisibly, the world has once again gained a deep understanding of China's vast and profound culture.
